5.If the height adjustable/recline stand is installed, before laying the computer down for service, position the computer vertically by grasping the sides of the display, and then raise the display to the highest position.
Place the computer face down on a soft flat surface. HP recommends that you set down a blanket, towel, or other soft cloth to protect the screen surface from scratches or other damage.
